The blues, is a low-down shakin' chill, yes, preach 'em now
And the blues fell mama's child, tore me all upside down
The blues, is a low-down achin' heart disease
I been studyin' the rain, I'm 'on drive my blues away
Well, the blues, is a achin' old heart disease
Worried blues, give me your right hand
Blues fell mama's child, and it tore me all upside down
You ain't never had 'em I, hope you never will
Travel on, poor Bob, just can't turn you 'round
I can study rain, oh oh drive, oh oh drive my blues
Like consumption, killing me by degrees
Is a low-down shakin' chill
Do it now, you gon' do it? Tell me all about it
